The next meeting of=
the
Greater Cincinnati Orchid Society will be on Tuesday, June 1, 2010=
. Note that this is usually the fi=
rst
Tuesday of the month. The m=
eeting
will be held at the Civic Garden Center on Reading Road across from Bethe=
sda
Hospital. The meeting is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. There will be time to socialize =
from
7:00 to 7:30. Program This
month’s program is by Erich Michel on “Terrestrials”. A reminder that there are no official society meeti=
ngs
over the summer. Don’t
forget the picnic with the Miami Valley Orchid Society June 27. Bring a s=
ide
dish and folding chairs. Dr=
inks
and meat are provided. A ma=
p and
directions to the park are available online and below. You are encouraged to bring plants for the auction =
20%
goes to the society and 80% to the seller. Register there as seller and buy=
er. A Word from the President R=
11; June
2010 Our
guest speaker for the June 1st Society meeting is Erich Michel
speaking on growing Terrestrial Orchids.=
His talk will begin at 7:30 PM in the Civic Garden Center. Erich is an AOS judge and founde=
r of
the Michel Orchid Nursery started in 2008. If you are interested, his web s=
ite
is: http://michelorchid.com/. Also
at the June 1st meeting, we
will not be having our Beginners Class even though our Event Cale=
ndar
states that Larry Sanford will be talking about “summering out your
plants”. Instead, the
Conservation Committee will be meeting at 7:00 PM in the Civic Garden Cen=
ter
library. This is their seco=
nd
meeting of the year and anyone interested is invited to join. There is no need to contact anyo=
ne in
advance. Just show up and
introduce yourself to the others present. I
would also like to announce that we are looking for individuals that would
like to get more involved with our Spring and Fall Shows. Pat June is in need of an Assist=
ant to
help her and/or Steve Helbling.
We would hope that there is someone out there that would like to g=
row
into Pat’s position (someday) as the Show Chairperson. If you are interested, please co=
ntact
Pat at rogerjune@aol.com or eith=
er of
us at the June meeting. Along
those same lines, Margaret Cullen is looking for an Assistant to help her
with finances and with a desire to take over this position. The end of her term in rapidly
approaching (December) although Pat O’Connor is reviewing the new
policies to see if that is true or not.&=
nbsp;
We will be adopting QUICKEN so it would help to be familiar with t=
his
software. Thanks
to all that have signed up to provide refreshments this year. We currently need one more perso=
n (or
couple) for our November meeting.
If you are interested in signing up, please look for the Refreshme=
nt
Sign-Up Sheet at the June meeting. We
have the July 10th Seminar coming up. Details for this event and forms=
for
signing up are on our Web Page and at bottom. In addition, you can get forms f=
rom
Jan Yates at the June meeting.
This will be a full day with lectures on Paphiopedilum hybrids and
miniatures as well as plants for sale. The
joint MVOS/GCOS Picnic will be held on June 27th at the Clearc=
reek
Park in Franklin (just south of exit 38 on the east side of I-75). The details on how to get there =
and
what to bring will be posted on our Web Site. This is a fun day when both of t=
he
local societies get together and it ends with an orchid auction of some n=
ice
plants at great prices. This
year’s featured Chefs will be Steve Helbling and I (no tips accepte=
d). Just
a reminder that we don’t have Society meetings in July and August.<=

This is the time to start telling your plants that they need to st=
